Another hint: if you didn’t get that hint in the title, you’re probably not going to care about this news.
For those of you living in your sweet cave with the WiFi, the Notorious B.I.G. was shot and killed back in 1997. Thanks to some pretty successful dickin’ around (conspiracy theories are welcome in the comments), the case was never solved. Well, hold on to your hats, you guys, because here we go again.
From CNN:
“A task force made up of local and federal law enforcement agencies is actively pursuing leads into the 1997 slaying of hip hop artist Christopher Wallace … According to one law enforcement source, the investigation into the 13-year-old unsolved case was ‘reinvigorated’ months ago as a result of new information, but the source would not elaborate further because of the ongoing investigation that includes the Los Angeles Police Department, L.A. County District Attorney’s Office and the FBI.”
Did you catch that last part? The FBI. They got involved for, like, a year back in 2004, but then I guess they had to investigate some talcum powder in an envelope or something and closed their case. But that doesn’t matter now, because now they’re in it to win it, and we better finally see some justice for Biggie (East Coast represent).
Ok, I want to know three things from you guys: who do you believe killed Biggie (I think I’m going to go with Voldemort), what’s your favorite Biggie song (“Hypnotize” for sure), and who’s better, Biggie or Tupac (does it discredit this entire post if I say Tupac?). Now you go.
Who cares.
I know Biggie was Diddy’s best friend and all, but he’s STILL rapping about his sadness about it on “Last Train to Paris.” I feel like he should be moving on….but maybe solving the murder will help. Let me know when they move on to Tupac, since I’m from Cali!!
